Nowadays, mountain bike downhill competition has emerged as a new event in sports competitions and is deeply loved.
 
Mountain bike, abbreviated as MTB. Originated in the United States, it started as a model developed by a group of young people who are keen to ride beach bikes on the hillsides in order to seek excitement and drive bicycles on the cross-country grounds of motorcycle races for trick competitions.

Nowadays, mountain bike downhill competition has emerged as a new event in sports competitions and is deeply loved. After that, cross-country sports gradually became popular in Europe and the United States and formed events. The International Cycling Federation recognized the sport in 1990, and the World Cup was held for the first time in 1991. The mountain bike race was first held in San Francisco in the United States in the 1970s. It was not until 1996 that it became an official event of the Olympic Games.

In mountain competitions, players must have good endurance, balance and endurance ability to surpass their opponents in a rugged and unpredictable schedule. Cycling track races and road races have flat roads, but the Olympic mountain bike races are different from these two races because the Olympic mountain bike races use flat tires and less aerodynamic considerations. During the entire race schedule, various collisions occur from time to time, so the players must have the ability to repair their cars at any time during the race schedule.
